concerning the study of matter and energy and the interactions between the two. Physics tries to explain the nature of the world around us‚ how things happen and why. Swimming displays some physical properties‚ such as buoyancy‚ drag resistance and propulsion. We swimmers are at a constant battle to stay afloat‚ while fighting through the water and propelling ourselves forward‚ and we do so using technique. Buoyancy is the power to float or rise in a fluid. This relates to swimming because when you’re

“The Evolution of Airplanes” Introduction This year is the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin (1809-1882)‚ the father of evolution. Darwin’s evolution theory proposes that all species of organisms‚ including human beings‚ evolved from common ancestors. There are five main characteristics in his evolution theory. First‚ there are variations among each population. Second‚ organisms compete for limited resources to exist. Third‚ traits of offspring are inherited from their parents. Forth‚ organisms

Many aspects of science were involved with the making of Europa Report. This movie included aspects of real science to make in more accurate even though the story of Europa One is completely science fiction. It included ways to deal with gravity on the ship‚ ways to get the ship to Europa‚ and a drill that digs through the ice of Europa. Gravity is a huge issue when it comes to space flight. Europa Report dealt with it in two ways. Cordero decided to show the astronauts in this movie actually working

ABSTRACT Cryogens are effective thermal storage media which‚ when used for automotive purposes‚ offer significant advantages over current and proposed electrochemical battery technologies‚ both in performance and economy. An automotive propulsion concept is presented which utilizes liquid nitrogen as the working fluid for an open Rankine cycle. The principle of operation is like that of a steam engine‚ except there is no combustion involved. Liquid nitrogen is pressurized and then vaporized in

MACHINES FOR AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS USING EFFICIENCY MAPS S. M. Lukic and A. Emado Illinois Institute of Technology Abstract: In most industrial applications of motor drives‚ motors operate at one or a few predefued operating points. However in propulsion applications‚ the motor is used over the entire torqudspeed range. Therefore‚ the motor has to be studied at all possible torqudspeed combinations within the motor operating envelope. Efficiency maps are a convenient way to represent motor drive

PROPULSION SYSTEM ELECTRODYNAMIC PROPULSION IS THE BASIS OF THE MOVEMENT IN A MAGLEV SYSTEM. THE BASIC PRINCIPLE THAT ELECTROMAGNETIC PROPULSION FOLLOWS IS THAT “OPPOSITE POLES ATTRACT EACH OTHER AND LIKE POLES REPEL EACH OTHER”. THIS MEANING THAT THE NORTH POLE OF A
